Im chinese, and geez are there alot of misconseptions about china.
I personally dont enjoy being chinese.
1. Were barely communist. Seriously. Anyone whos been to china knows that.
2. We arnt poor. Sure, some rural parts are poor as dirt though
And more. Which I cant think of on 5 hrs of sleep.

Discuss anything related to this wonderful and ancient nation. I'll start it off. did you know that china has this one law that prohibits women from having more than one child

I dont think they ahve that law ne more

ne way China is slowly losing its coumminism

in china you need to have the correct paperwork to have the one child in the first place
if you get pregnant without the correct documentation they levy a huge fine on you that MOST people in china wouldnt be able to afford. it forces couples to go into hiding in case the baby is discovered. it also forces young couples into selling their children because the situation becomes impossible for them.
as you can imagine the better off can afford these fines, and can get the paperwork easily for the first child.

if you get pregnant with a second child, yep, huge fine again. and again the better off can afford the fine to have the second child.

then because of the laws governing the number of children you can have, a farming family would be totaly screwed if they had a daughter because that daughter would be married and leave the parents home to live with the husbands family. this means when the daughters parents get old they have noone to help them on their farm etc. there is also no such thing as old age folks homes etc, so they are left alone. hence the huge trade in female children to be adopted in the west.

and in TIbet where China claims they do not enforce the one child rule? there have been substantiated reports of women having children forcefully terminated under threat of having their worldly goods confiscated. they are also steralised using the same threats.

i could go on, its all very messed up.

china is a beautiful place with beautiful people, but its government have a lot to answer for, in particular to its own people.
